WRF (Weather and Research Forecast Model)

The overall goal of the WRF Model project is to develop a next-generation mesoscale forecast model and assimilation system that will advance both the understanding and prediction of important mesoscale precipitation systems, and promote closer ties between the research and operational forecasting communities. The model is being developed as a collaborative effort among several NSF, Dept of Commerce, and DoD sponsored institutions, together with the participation of a number of university scientists.
